by Townes Van Zandt

Blue wind's blown my dreams away

my darling's flown and she's gone to stay

all I got now is yesterday

and I don't know what to do

I guess I'll go downtown and see

just what downtown can do for me

maybe set my lonesome free

or maybe let me go

I loved her true and I told her so

I ask her too and she told me no

she said she had somewhere to go

and then she said good-bye

I wonder how long it can go on

how long I'll sing this same old song

I wonder which one done us wrong

which one forgot to try

I loved her true and I told her so

I ask her too and she told me no

she said she had somewhere to go

and then she said good-bye
